1. 5th Grade Guy Stuff Program
Understanding the complex feelings, physical changes, increased social expectations and “hidden rules” of
adolescence can be particularly challenging for boys diagnosed with social learning needs such as ADHD, Asperger’s or
higher-verbal autism spectrum diagnoses. This population of boys needs much more comprehensive information around
these topics yet very few receive the education they need.
Guy Stuff is a fun, interactive program taught from a social learning perspective to help boys increase their social
understanding while providing parents with the education they need to communicate about these topics.
Fathers (or a male role model) participate in the 5th
grade and one session of the middle school program.
A parents-only session precedes the beginning of course.
